Mate, you should definitely make a video on Ataturk, or Atachad (for such a person was a chad of his time considering his military & political successes as well as farsightedness ). Why Ataturk? Because he probably is one of the most influential person in Turkish history (I even saw a photo of it in the video “Persian history be like” sitting with Reza Shah Pahlavi in a car).

Reading the Wikipedia page about this is hilarious, since the defeat is unilaterally the fault of the French. Basically, the Hungarians, having tons of experience fighting the Ottomans, come up with the perfect plan to defeat them, which the rest of the Christian alliance accepts. Then the French come in, and the younger knights refuse to adhere to the plan since they wouldn’t have the glory of being the first ones to attack the enemy. The French decide to ‘Leeroy Jenkins’ the whole thing, charge and break the Ottoman’s weaker front lines, pursue the fleeing Turks by charging up a plateau, only to meet the Turks’ well-rested, A-team cavalry. The exhausted French then get annihilated; some of the Christians rush in to save them, but the majority of the Christian army panics, flees the battlefield, and ends up drowning in the Danube. It’s like a school project where everyone on the team pours their hearts and souls into doing a good job, only the watch the egotistical kid who did zero work take charge of the presentation at the last moment, do a horrible job, and then land everyone with an F.

[@thanosofthecommunistdruzhi9107]

feint retreats appear to be the doom of many european armies

[@Johnsmith99663]

@@thanosofthecommunistdruzhi9107 Tbf it was an actual retreat for the Ottoman front lines, as in the French had broken their line and the Ottoman conscripts and infantry were fleeing for their lives. However, as the Hungarians had pointed out, the Turks deliberately fight with a relatively weaker front line in order to exhaust the enemy, at which point the strong Ottoman cavalry comes in to rescue the front lines and crush the enemy. This is why they were waiting behind the plateau, not so much to ambush the French as they were riding up to the plateau, but to ride down and envelop the enemy that was still tied down still fighting the Ottoman’s infantry. Meeting the exhausted French while they were charging up the hill wasn’t the plan, but it was still a welcome surprise. It was good for the Ottoman cavalry, it was good for the Ottoman’s overall victory…it was not good for the Ottoman’s frontline conscripts and better-trained infantry, both which got sacrificed like pawns. In a sense the Ottoman’s used a weak front to kinda act like pawns, but not in the sense they were deliberately trying to get it massacred and put on the retreat by the enemy’s heavy cavalry. In that sense, the French performed better than expected, even against the better-trained Ottoman Janissaries. But they were warned not to do something like that by the Hungarians, and sure enough it turned out the Ottomans were hiding the second half of their forces behind that hill, which then moved forward and easily destroyed them. Plus, since the French charged so far ahead of the rest of the Christian forces, no one was there to guard the flanks and protect them. The rest of the Christian forces were so spooked by the one-sided slaughter of their best knights that the Turkish cavalry was then able to easily drive the rest of them into the Danube, even though they probably could’ve held out longer had they not been so demoralized. Essentially, not only had the French fumbled the whole thing, they managed to make the Turkish cavalry look invincible as well.

[@rarescevei8268]

​@@thanosofthecommunistdruzhi9107It actually was a retreat. It wasnt a feint. The Ottomans did not expect that the French would charge on their own.

[@thanosofthecommunistdruzhi9107]

@@rarescevei8268 mayhaps so, but in a sense it did act like a feint retreat. Even after the French knights routed the infantry (which despite some troubles with anti-cavalry stakes, was expected), they continued pursuing the enemy instead of allowing the rest of the Crusader forces to catch up. Like John Smith mentioned, the Sultan Bayezid was in fact hiding the rest of his forces (reserves) and took advantage of the French's isolation (many knights were unhorsed at this point because of the anti-cavalry) by descending upon them and taking many of these nobles prisoner. John Smith's reasoning also states that it was mainly a retreat on the part of the infantry, so I'm assuming that it acted more as a feint retreat on a much larger scale. A similar thing occurred during the Battle of Kalka, which saw the Mongols utilize what is considered a feint retreat against the supposedly much larger Russian army. When the Russians advanced, the Mongols were forced to retreat because the reinforcements they were supposed to receive were not coming. They retreated in the only direction they could (away from the advancing Russian forces), leaving behind ~1,000 troops to cover for it, who were subsequently "killed to the last man" according to my source (Wikipedia). The various Lords or Princes of Russia can be compared to the French Knights in that they continued to pursue the retreating Mongol army and their 9-day retreat. The Mongols simply took advantage of the disorganized Russian armies, causing the rest to flee. This event is widely considered to be one of the most successful feint retreats and is not too dissimilar to Nicopolis.

Writing in the ninth century, the Arab historian al-Jahiz captured the awe with which outsiders viewed these fighters: If a thousand of their [Turks’] horse join battle and let off a single shower of arrows, they can mow down a thousand [Arabs’] horse. No army can withstand this kind of assault. The Kharajites and the Bedouin have no skill worth mentioning in shooting from horseback, but the Turk can shoot at beasts, birds, hoops, men, sitting quarry, dummies and birds on the wing, and do so at full gallop to fore or to rear, to left or to right, upwards or downwards, loosing ten arrows before the Kharajite can nock one ... and if they do turn their back,they are to be feared as much as deadly poison and sudden death; for their arrows hit the mark as much when they are retreating as when they are advancing.18 RICHARD M.

THE TURKS AND THE WEST from 11 days. Europe stood in awe of the Ottomans who crushed many states and conquered vast territories, going, as all patriotic Turks will proudly point out, "all the way to the gates of Vienna." European literature is replete with the depictions of the Turk as the hated enemy. The English often thought of the Turk as awe-inspiring and destructive. Thomas Fuller wrote in The Holy Warre (1639): "The Turkish Empire is the greatest... the sun ever saw. ...Grass springeth not where the grand signior's horse setteth his foot."

At this, D'Eu declared that Sigismund simply wished to hoard the battle honors for himself and declared his willingness to lead the charge. Coucy, who declared D'Eu's words to be a "presumption", asked for the counsel of Vienne, who noted," When truth and reason cannot be heard, then must rule presumption."
